    Any advice for newbie pls

    Hi! Welcome to weight watchers! You will find lots of info and advice on this forum. My advice would be not to deprive yourself and if you have a bad day, draw a line under it and start afresh the following day. That is the secret to getting weight off and keeping it off. Good luck x

    I agree your not eating enough. What is your daily points allowance? 16 is still quite low. If you keep doing 10/13 points you wont loose because you are starving yourself... your making it really hard for yourself and ww is designed not to be!! Good luck x
